I have Perlscript installed already :-).

The question I'm after the answer for is
What goes in the [Language] parameter of the #MSS and %mss command/function for zmud when using Perlscript?

T ...

I was looking at the feature list for the new version and it says you can use perlscript rather than the built in scripting language. On the help pages for #MSS and %mss there is an optional parameter ...

Thanks for the answer,

I found it in the help file too

also this seems wrong too but using an exact match

alias test_bug
#SHOW %1
#IF ("%1" = "monster") {#SHOW buggy} {#SHOW correct}
#IF ("%1" = "a") {#SHOW buggy} {#SHOW correct}

run with test_ ...

#alias test_bug
#IF ("%1" =~ "foobar") {#SHOW true foobar = "%1"}
#IF ("%1" =~ "true foobar") {#SHOW true true foobar = "%1"}
#IF ("%1" =~ "false foobar") {#SHOW true false foobar = "%1"}

when ...

DOH! I read that post already, on reading it again, enlightenment.

Thanks

I thought this was possible but cannot find the commands/functions to do it.

What I want to do is capture text from a room description because it is a different colour. As in the following,

Th ...

No, I'm not ranting just pointing out something that is stated in the help that does not work as expected. In the hope it will get added to the FIXME list. Why is it that when the post is not vote for ...

Where the text can be :-
Align:
Align:
I.e. there can be leading spaces but not always

trigger pattern is ^Align:%s~

When using zMud as a COM server, I cannot see a way to read the text comming back from the mud.

You can after connecting etc. send a str to the mud with SendStr(const S: WideString);

I cannot s ...

Ok thanks for the tip on spaces. Zmud has weird syntax with spaces though, not like most other scripting languages. Sometime you get unxepected results when you have spaces.

So why does @obj not g ...

#SHOW test is running
#VARIABLE temp "Green"
#IF (@temp=~"Green") {#SHOW "true Green=Green"} {#SHOW "False Green<>Green"}

Can you guess what this will print on your screen after the line "t ...

I would have thought that dir_1 and dir_2 would end up with the same contents, but they don't.

Obvious exits from this room are:

East : The Sands ...

The only problem is when you save the alias the ./ is removed from #T- ./def and the ./abc/ is removed from #T- ./abc/def so you end up with

#T- def
#T- def

I'll raise this as a bug with Zugg. ...

ah ok, can Zugg put this on his list of syntax highlighter bugs.

and while playing around with this I also found this one put both in quotes and it's always false.

#var test string
#var lookfor ...

Sorry that was a typo on my part there it should all be in %1

after expansion in the alias it should be testing
"The Sands of Sorrow" = "Strange Glowing Sand"

or
"The Sands of Sorrow" =~ " ...

How can you check it two strings do NOT match as the following always goes through the true path.

Set the value in a variable lookfor to "The Sands of Sorrow" on the command line.
Then create an a ...

Why is this a syntax error
#if (@test =~ @lookfor) { ......}

When this is not
#if (@test =~ "%2") { ......}

Did I miss something in the help file?

Hi

How do you turn on/off a class that is a nested class.

So normally you use #T+ <class name> and #T- <class name> to toggle the class on and off,
what is the syntax for a nested c ...

When you do a find in the mapper and it includes a single quote '
you get an error. This is easy to get round you just use % instead.

Can all ' be converted to % before being passed to the access ...

You can use #ABORT or #ABORT 1 have a look at the manual pages to see which one you need.

If it is in a loop that you want to stop at some point regardless of the settings or number of times it ha ...

Ok, I'll email this to Zugg.

Just thought this was a General thing rather than specific to any version.

Can you add a find text option to the script editor?

Nothing fancy just a simple search for this text. Starts at the top works down to the bottom until if finds the matching text.

Zaf

Paste the script below into your zMud editor
Note: YOU MUST change <Full path to the mapper mdb> to something like
C:ZMudmapper.mdb, I.e. to point at your own map database

Usage: findRoom ...

DOH, I forgot about that function,

great that works a treat now. The line looks like this

#VARIABLE rs @Conn.Execute( %concat("SELECT z.name, o.name FROM ZoneTbl z, ObjectTbl o WHERE o.nam ...
